I don't know what the gently caress is wrong with you people, of course it's pronounced ho-door, as in look at those hos use that door, and I didn't even realize there was another way to pronounce Arya at all.

Shouldn't it be like "Airy-a"? Because y'know, her being called Arry' at times. I don't even remember how they said it in the show to be honest.

Hodor is a servant so he uses the ho door to get the hoes and hos. Also I hate all of you. Absolute fuckers.

I think he's talking in terms of difficulty. Varamyr was weakened, sure, but he was still the most powerful fully-trained warg we know of, and he couldn't manage to force his way into that spearwife's body. Presumably it's easier to warg into less sapient creatures, so Hodor would be easier than, say, Meera or Jojen.

I always thought it was Arry-a when I was reading the books but Arr Ya works too I suppose.

There's some inconsistency with how things are pronounced in the show. Mostly it's are-e-ya, but sometimes it's are-ya. Daenerys sometimes gets an extra syllable thrown in, too.

I wonder if they did that on purpose, like the dialect in King's Landing is different from the North. Or maybe I am just trying to rationalize something that is their mistake. Anywho, I just did a search on Wikipedia for "Wanderer Above the Sea of Fog", and Wikipedia suggest that I search for "Wanderer Above the Sea of Food" and the first thing to come to mind was "by George R. R. Martin, his first painting"

It's clearly pronounced "arrhea" as in diarrhea.

Arya is an actual real world name, so go with that pronunciation. This isn't Drizzt Do'urden or whatever that garbage is called.

If you were a good reader you would have seen the obvious foreshadowing of good sir Guen's fantasy sex change. Pay more attention, Master _of_tyshalle.

This were the last words of the creature we now refer to as the ghost of ASOIAF, forever doomed to roam these boards and to suck shitdick. Because there will be no next book.

Do you guys suppose the chapter that the Dear Leader posted on his website was something new that he wrote recently or just something cut from ADWD? The cut stuff that was previously noted didn't mention any Theon chapters to my knowledge.

zocio posted:I think you mean gently caress me bloody. Moon blood or miscarriage? Though Daario did 'gently caress' Danaerys Targaryen, roughly and repeatedly, there were no instances that he bloodied her vagina with his manic thrusting. In fact, it was not until chapters later when Daario was captured by enemy forces that her bloodying occured on the Dothraki sea. In thr question above, only if you subscribe to the latter school of thought is Daario (or Hizrahr) tangentially responsible for the blood. So by your joke I assume you buy into this theory, which I call, "The Daario Vitality Ultimatum".

I will need detailed descriptions of Tyrion pissing in at least four chapters to consider Book 6 a success.

One does not preclude the other. Daario could even be Rhaegar in disguise.
